He had followed an outlaw right into the middle of a major Indian uprising and a battle that turned into a slaughter.

His warriors are armed and waiting-to spill the white men's blood...Rogue River is Kerry Newcomb's classic, action-packed tale of war and pursuit in his acclaimed chronicle of the Texas Anthem family-and their battles on a breathtaking frontier.
